you can always get tokico dspec shocks, where you can adjust the stiffness to your liking.

Spring/Shocks vs Coilovers....!

The answer lies within your wallet! Springs and shocks might cost you $600
for a drop less than an inch. Coilovers will cost you from $1200 to $1800
plus all the suspension parts to bring you back to specs. Total cost for this
would exceed $3000+....your choice!

You might need the SPC camber kit to get you back into specs, so the tires dont wear down.

I cant decide what suspension to go with either?????

Tein fmtw. Plus if you do just coils you'll end up replacing the shocks.
